FACING FURY - Surviving the STORM in TONGA (73)
The week our family is in the Ha'apai island group of Tonga. It was all smooth sailing with friends until the weather forecast changed. Everyone left and we decided to stay behind and ride out the storm. It left us questioning our sanity and if we were making the right decision. Hopefully we don't live to regret it.
Thank you for watching and subscribing. You don't know how much we appreciate it!
To God be the glory!
